Some things never change...

I was sitting here doing some work when all of a sudden some Jehovah's Witnesses came to the door. I never would have guessed I'd get to talk to a Jehovah's Witness in Peru. He was telling me all about some book of the Bible called Hop or something like that. Evidently Moses wrote about the world being round before the explorers discovered that. It was kind of funny. But I told him about how I was here working as a missionary and that I loved the church I am attending here in Lima. Later he offered to have his Australian friends who run the church come and talk to me about my faith. I just found it funny that even here, you never know when the Jehovah's witnesses are going to come knocking on your door.

Claudia and I have decided to make a blog for our English Fellowship. We are going to use this so that the people who attend the Bible studies can ask questions, etc. We will also post some pictures on it and make announcements. I thought I would share the address with you guys in case you wanted to check it out. We haven't shared this info with the students yet so it might take a while to get it up and going. For future reference the site is englishfellowship.blogspot.com. I will post a link on my site as well.

So I have a few prayer requests:
1.) The Church I am attending, Alianza de Miraflores, has asked me to lead a Bible study in English there. This will be one more Bible study per week and could help recruit more translators for future mission trips. We are trying to work out a schedule and other final details on this. Please pray that we will seek God's guidance in this and that a lot of people will be interested.
2.) Claudia and I are in charge of a spring break mission group of three girls coming in. We are trying to figure out if we should travel into a village or stay in Lima and do ministry. We need to figure this out soon so we can begin making final plans.
3.) I have had more opportunities to spend time with people from the Bible studies. Please keep these people in your prayers as I am getting to know them more and having more chances to talk to them about Christ.
4.) We have 4 Spring Break teams coming in March (including the one I will be working with). Most will be traveling out into villages to do ministry. Keep these people in your prayers as well as the people they will come into contact with.

Thanks for praying!
